One is a Hawaiian legend who has stretched the boundaries of slack key guitar music while remaining true to its deeply Hawaiian roots. The other is a rising star who uses the style’s open tunings to explore multiple genres with ease and flair. Together, they present an evening of superb guitar that explores the range of Hawai‘i’s many cultural influences (as evidenced by their music in the film The Descendants, starring George Clooney).

The two are joined by lovely dancer Moanalani Beamer, “Keola Beamer is the Andres Segovia of the slack key guitar.” (Long Beach Press Telegram).
